DLR TRANSPORTATION
Registered as DLR AUTOTRANSPORTES LLC
DLR TRANSPORTATION operates out of SAN DIEGO, CA and holds carrier authority. It owns the equipment and its own driver collects your vehicle. A large carrier. Fleets this size move vehicles for dealerships, auctions and manufacturers, and usually have terminal space at both ends of a major lane. SAN DIEGO is a busy base for the trade — 8 other licensed companies are registered in the same city, which usually means competitive pricing on lanes out of it.
From the company’s own FMCSA census filing, last updated January 2026.
DLR TRANSPORTATION has held operating authority since 2016, 10 years, long enough to have run through both the 2020 collapse in volumes and the rate spike that followed. It reports 113 power units but only 108 drivers, which usually means some of the fleet sits idle or is run by owner-operators contracted per load. The fleet reported 5,495,442 miles in 2024, about 48,632 per truck — steady regional running.

Take MC 973145 to the FMCSA licensing register and confirm three things: the authority still reads ACTIVE, cargo insurance is on file, and the company name matches whoever is asking for your deposit. Our data is a snapshot of the federal register, not a recommendation, and authority can lapse between refreshes.
